The film 'One Win,' starring Song Kang Ho and Park Jung Min, with a special appearance by volleyball legend Kim Yeon Koung, has garnered significant attention as Korea's first volleyball movie and is now airing as a Chuseok special. It aims to deliver courage and emotion to those who have experienced defeat, portraying the struggles of underdogs who rise again in a competitive society.
The movie centers on Kim Woo Jin (Song Kang Ho), a struggling youth volleyball coach, who takes on the 'Pink Storm,' a women's volleyball team on the verge of disbandment, with the eccentric owner Kang Jung Won (Park Jung Min) proposing a goal of just 'one win.' The film is noted for its respectful and sincere portrayal of volleyball, featuring special appearances by real volleyball players like Shin Jin Sik, Kim Se Jin, and Kim Yeon Koung, which adds to the realism of the dynamic match scenes.
Bloggers commend 'One Win' for emphasizing the significance of a single victory over championship titles, offering a comforting message to those who have faced failure. The blend of Song Kang Ho's pathos and Park Jung Min's nuanced performance enhances the emotional depth, with many appreciating how the film not only shows the games but also clearly explains the strategies and analysis behind them.
